re: Worst Mexican restaurant in Baton Rouge
Posted by GeauxPack81 on 3/17/25 at 11:27 am
Zippys used to be great. Not because the food was amazing, but because it was a good spot to watch games. Go have some drinks, good vibes, and what felt like bar food mexican if you are hungry.
Then they renovated, and completely ruined it. There is no more vibe anymore, and its so loud in there you can't watch a game. The drinks feel like they are worse, but I'm sure I'm just jaded by what they've done to the place.
Id be curious if I'm alone with that take. We used to go all the time, but I've only been once since they renovated. It used to be a good place to bring kids, but I don't even consider it anymore.

Was it back to back days Leon Landry had the diving catch and against the CF fence where his jersey got caught for a second.

The service has been shite at Roberts for years now. I still go cause it's convenient for me, but it's slowly gotten worse.
I'll be interested to see if Mathernes manages it better.

Did not realize OSU and Texas played week 1 nor Miami and ND. Credit to them for scheduling that. And LSU-Clemson Week 1 as well, so potentially 3 top 10 matchups week 1.

Not trying to sound like sour grapes, since it seems like hes trending elsewhere... But if we are really trying to go all in next year with Nuss coming back and looking to really spend in the portal. Then it makes absolutely no sense to me to spend a ton of money on a 17 year old DT. It's already a hard position to play early, but someone that reclassified and has had almost no experience playing HS football will need time to develop.
Would love to have him on board in a vacuum, but assuming he is demanding a ton of money then I think we are probably better off spending that money elsewhere. If it sures up guys like Dom McKinley who is probably getting tampered right not and will probably be looking for more money this offseason. If it goes towards keeping CJ Daniels or Caden Durham. If it can go towards an immediate starter on the O-Line or at safety. That would make way more sense to me.

re: Best Receiving Corp in SEC Single Season History?
Posted by GeauxPack81 on 12/2/24 at 11:36 pm
A 1-5 of
Jefferson, Chase, Marshall, and any other 2 humans on the planet is still the best receiving corps ever assembled.
You are talking about 2 WRs that are the 2 best WRs in the NFL since they have been in the league. Not starters, not pro bowlers, talking HOF career tracks.

He's not handcuffed by the inability to run the ball, he is the reason we have no ability to run the ball.
re: The Future of the program hinges on offensive coordinator

His scheme will work better with a mobile QB, but it's absolutely insane the offense we are running currently with Nuss.
Caden Durham Stretch Zone out of Pistol
Posted by GeauxPack81 on 11/10/24 at 7:41 am
Ran it twice in the first 2 drives. First one went for 45 yards, second went for 7 yards.
Never ran it again. Reverted back to Josh Williams inside zone which hasn't worked the entire season. Sloan is a terrible play caller.

re: WAFB: “The shopping Mecca of East Baton Rouge Parish”: New development coming to St. Georg

That's a ton of retail and office. I mean good luck to him, I hope it's a very successful development, but I have my doubts.
Feel like there has to be some sort of residential component, a significant public amenity, or a signature tenant HQ to make it work.

re: First time visitors to Tiger Stadium for game vs Alabama!

Get out there early. Campus is going to be an absolute shite show basically 1pm on. I'd go to Chimes as soon as they open, maybe 9 or 10 for a boudin omelet and Bloody marys/beers/mimosas. Once your done, just walk around campus since it'll be buzzing. Look for tailgates with big pots of jambalaya or gumbo being cooked in massive cast iron pots. Ask them what they have cooking, tell them it's your first LSU gameday experience, and 90% will invite yall in and treat you right. Offer your bottle of whiskey, that's a good idea, or cash... Have a great time and go into the stadium well fed and liquored up. It'll be an insane atmosphere until our dumb coach decides to receive instead of kickoff and the crowd has to calm down :lol:
When looking for tailgates, I'd avoid the parade grounds as that is generally younger people like college kids. The best spot is probably going to be around Lockett hall, that way you can see the band and team go down the hill and hop over to the tiger sanctuary easily as well. Some bigger/nicer tailgates over there, especially on the south side of Lockett.

What a weird thing to hang your hat on. Don't think I've ever heard someone caring about vacated wins outside of the players/coaches directly involved. Fans know what happened on the field, you can't change that. Ask A&M how they feel about how those games went in College Station.
Let me rephrase it for you. LSU has not lost to A&M in BR since they joined the conference. A&M has lost to LSU 3 times in College Station since they joined the conference. LSU may not have a win on record, but A&M sure as shite has a loss.

Lol, nobody actually gives a shite about something being vacated. Tell Louisville they didn't win a basketball National Cahmpionship :lol:

About as much as LSU has at Kyle, lately. I think it was 2016 the last time LSU has won there. LSU has won twice in the last 10 times they have played there. A&M has won 4 times in the last 10 at Death Valley.
We just making up facts now? Or are you taling out the vacated wins? Then going back to the 80s and 90s :lol:
Since A&M joined the conference, they haven't won in Baton Rouge, and we've won in College Station 3 times... they've won the last 4 there, and we've won the last 6 in BR. Their 4 included the Covid year and 7OT game as well.

Because A&M has had so much success recently in Death Valley :lol:.

Would be shocked if the bracelets ever come back... Really should just make an app for your phone that controls the light on it. I think that's how most stadiums do it

100% on with all of your points. The run game play calling sucks, and our refusal to use our TEs in the red zone is maddening. They have done nothing but succeed when given the opportunities

If this college football season has proven anything, it's that nobody is really that great and going on the road is very hard regardless the opponent.
